The daughter of a duke. The newly appointed steward. The scandal writes itself.
In this clean Regency romance, Lady Seraphina Oxley has never had a season. Buried in the Yorkshire moors under the iron rule of the Dowager Duchess of Oxley, she has watched the world from a distance and waited. Now London is finally beckoning until a storm rolls in off the moors ... bringing Nathaniel Beckwith with it.Four-and-twenty and never been kissed …
Seraphina has survived her grandmother's grip. She knows her situation. She knows what is expected of a duke's daughter who has already missed her moment. She did not expect the man who pulled her from the storm, wrapped her in his coat, and looked at her as though she were a problem worth taking seriously. Not her station, not her face, but her. Nathaniel Beckwith is impossible to forget ... and suddenly London doesn't seem so appealing.
He knows exactly where he stands …
Beckwith came to Fortunestone Hall to rescue a crumbling estate, not the duke's secluded daughter. He is a steward's appointment, not a gentleman's equal, and he has no illusions about who he is or what he is permitted to notice. He knows what passed between them in the rain. He knows he should forget it. Lady Seraphina Oxley, however, is making that considerably harder than expected.
As the dowager tightens her grip and London looms ever closer, love flickers in the cold Yorkshire air between a woman who has never been given her chance and a man who knows better than to think he can court above his class.
